Is sleep precise enough?
There are multiple ways to achieve this. Probably the simplest and most reliable is to rely on cron to run your process every minute. Cron keeps track of time and executes your script each minute. This has the added benefit of avoiding a long running process (which can have its own issues). You can even have your script install it’s own cron job using the Whenever gem.
